Lux, li3 years old, was suffocated under an automobile, In which ho was riding with young men and women folluwlng a tour of roud liouset!. "We recognize that tho auto mo. bile, the road house, the beer flat and the speakeasy have been sources of social and moral deter ioration, and urge that very ef fective means of control be em ployed lo regulate or eliminate, as the case requires, those sources of corruption In the life of youth. "Tho jury believes that when not all schools but all other social in HtftuUons as well develop ways und meaiiH to make character ideals ef fective, a lurge part of tho prob lem will lie solved. "We .are convinced that tho problems and conditions which face youth are not of their own making. They are not responsible for the fact that social conditions are unstable und unfavorable to the development of the highest type of life.
